The Real Hot Messes of Prison, amiright?
Over the years, several stars from Bravo"s most successful programs have been handcuffed for various offenses including DUIs, domestic abuse and assault and battery.
Heck, Josh Waring from The Real Housewives of Orange County, was actually charged with attempted murder, which kind of takes the cake.
Who else have run afoul of the authorities, though?
Find out below!
1. Kelly Bensimon
‘The Real Housewives of New York’ star was arrested in 2009 for punching her then-boyfriend, Nick Stefanov in the eye. Stefanov, according to People, allegedly fled the apartment and ran to the nearest precinct to press charges.
2. Sonja Morgan
Morgan was arrested for driving under the influence in 2010, after partying in the Hamptons over Memorial Day Weekend. She went through a stop sign and refused to take a Breathalyzer after failing field sobriety tests, so the officer on duty handcuffed the reality star.
3. Josh Waring
Waring, son of former Orange County star Lauri Peterson, was arrested on seven counts in June 2016, including attempted murder.
4. Joe Giudice
Where to begin? Giudice is currently serving time for tax fraud, but his previous arrests include a DUI and impersonating his brother in order to get a driver’s license. In 2015, he was caught driving with suspended license. Upon Giudice’s release from prison, he could face deportation, as he is not a US citizen (he was born in Italy, but moved here when he was very young).
5. Peter Thomas
Cynthia Bailey’s estranged husband was arrested for simple assault on a woman in 2008. He was arrested a year later on the same charge, along with “battery with visible harm.”
6. Marysol Patton
The Real Housewives of Miami star was arrested for a DUI in 2010. According to Radar, Patton was able to plead guilty to a lesser charge of Reckless Driving, having to pay only a $ 1000 fine, plus $ 581 in court fees.
